Policies
Applications to Metrolina Christian Academy are accepted year-round. You may obtain an application by request through e-mail, downloading applications online, by calling the school office, or coming by the school office. Once the application is completed, it must be returned to the school office with a non-refundable registration fee. Upon acceptance your child will come for placement testing. Immediately following testing, you will be informed of the results. Before the application process begins, you are welcome to request a tour of the school to see first-hand the glorious advancements being made here at MCA. This will also give you a time to ask more detailed questions concerning the curriculum and activities.
Non-Discriminatory Policy
MCA does not discriminate on the basis of race, national or ethnic origin in its admission policies, or in the administration of its programs. However, in the case of “special needs” children, we reserve the right to determine whether or not to enroll children who may need specially trained professionals, materials or facilities that we cannot offer.
